What did netizens say about this optical illusion?
“We're on the sink side, the faucet looks like it could be a swan neck type, and the alignment makes it to where the end of the faucet is effectively blending with the base of the stem,” explained a Reddit user. “Down?” added another.
“Towards the camera. Plus the soap dispenser is almost always pointing towards the person, and therefore pointing towards the sink,” joined a third. “I'm confused,” posted a fourth. “ I see it now. Wow, that's hard to see,” wrote a fifth.
